Abandoned cars and barn finds picture thread!!!!!

[RandomCarGuy17]

I couldn't find any abandoned cars in my town unfortunately.

I did find something on google. I'm surprised noone posted this yet.

Apparently, there's a BMW dealership that's no longer in use, but still has a couple of older Bimmers inside it.

Thats awesome! BMW time capsule FTW!

Lovely pics RocZX, there's something very appealing about neglected old cars like that (in a sad, romantic way) which a pristine restored one simply can't replicate.

Anyone up for a good boosting?

Hahahaha just kidding

Shame that there isn't a bigger version of that. It would have made a beautiful desktop background.

I don't know what I find more funny, this or the fact I had to google "boosting" to figure out the joke.

Anyway, I find the idea of abandoned car dealerships interesting and sort of creepy. I'm looking on other websites as a matter of fact to see if there's other stories like that dealership that was shown on here with the 2 mopars in it.

Someone is using this dealership to store a Pontiac Firebird Trans AM.

AMCs left to rust.

Which models are these? 3-series?

 

[playnthru]

5(4 door) and 6.👍

The website I found it on said that they're both 6-series bimmers.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Thanks guys. I definitely didn't expect a 5 or a 6-series. Picture made them look relatively small for being one.

Cheers.

The website I found it on said that they're both 6-series bimmers.

Nope. the grey is a 5 series, and the white is a non-CSI 6 series.

Edit.

Can I just say here that I really hate the word Bimmer?

I know that the 5-Series is a 4-door and the 6-series is a 2 door coupe. I was just saying what the website said, nothing else.

Why do people do this anyway? Just use old dealerships for storage, are they too cheap to buy their own garage or something?

With you. When I heard it, for instance, in Cars, and with such a lame ussage too, I felt my blood boiling hard.

Understandable, I can't believe I was saying it. ugh, I've been around my friends too much. They keep saying all sorts of stupid car slang.

In my town there's an old Porsche 928 that hasn't been moved since I moved to town, over 10 years. It's completely decayed, front bumpers gone and the original paintwork isn't even recognizable anymore.

Duuude pics now! Really!

Duuude pics now! Really!

I'll try as fast as I can, problem is I don't get out to that part of town very often and when I saw this thread it made me think of it. I'll try to make an impromptu trip out there this week and come back with some pictures.

 

[Cano]

Yes! At least me, I'll eagerly wait. The 928 is one of my fave Porsches because wedge, pop-ups, and of course V8 powah, baby.

I think it's a 928, but I can't be for sure, never really looked for old abandoned cars, just knew this one was there, I was told at one time it was a Porsche though, but I'll get a picture and you can judge for yourself

 

[Cano]

ok, I'll wait for it (:

There is a Toyota dealership in Cyprus which is caught in the U.N green zone
since the end of hostilities between the two comunities of the island.
